Primary Identifier | MGI:107979 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 12 | NCBI Gene Number | 16570 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable ATP hydrolysis activity; cytoskeletal protein binding activity; and microtubule motor activity. Predicted to be involved in microtubule-based movement and positive regulation of neuron projection development. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including microtubule plus-end; neuronal ribonucleoprotein granule; and synaptic vesicle. Predicted to be part of kinesin complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and microtubule. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; gut; hemolymphoid system gland; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human KIF3C (kinesin family member 3C). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene display a normal phenotype. [provided by MGI curators] |
